Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 411825, member: 27"] FYI, like the SEC, the Big Ten does not have an exit fee. There is no problem on that front. The financial problem for a school looking to leave the Big Ten is the grant of rights all Big Ten schools signed. I don't know how long that grant of rights extended to, but right now PSU's TV rights are under contract to the Big Ten. If they left, rather than allowing PSU games to be televised by/rights paid to the Big Ten, I assume an agreement would be reached where the Big Ten would get paid a huge fee to cede the rights to PSU games. That might end up being similar to the ACC $50 million exit fee...I have no idea. [/QUOTE]
